this is big business duty-free shopping. shoppers spent $39 billion at duty-free shops last year. >> what items is it worth it to buy at these shops? >> reporter: this is the meaty part here. three examples of the top items people go for. perfume and cosmetics. i say buy it duty-free especially if it's a multipack with more savings. if you're looking for cigarettes, buy those duty-free as well. the fact is we pay a lot in taxes here in the u.s. electronics, though, buy those at a regular retail store because they are going to be cheaper at the regular retail store and you may need to return it if something happens. >>> what is in store for stocks today? a flat open. trading is expected as we come off the strongest week in two years. a fact orders report out in half an hour. see if that moves the markets at all. kyra, back to you. >> thanks, alison. >>> a portion of one of the nation's most pristine rivers polluted by an oil spill. the latest on the cleanup in four minutes. >>> duke and duchess hit prince edward island head-t
